The Prophet ﷺ used to teach his family. 373 00:35:59,672 --> 00:36:03,832 guide them to what is good and command them to obey. 374 00:36:04,672 --> 00:36:11,472 The Prophet ﷺ corrected them if they erred. So should a man. 375 00:36:14,012 --> 00:36:19,692 A man should be gentle in conduct guiding to the religion of Allah ﷻ. 376 00:36:22,272 --> 00:36:25,012 He strives to shield his family from the Fire. 377 00:36:28,072 --> 00:36:31,132 He teaches them. When he learns, he teaches them. 378 00:36:33,272 --> 00:36:36,692 If he gains a benefit, he shares it with his family. 379 00:36:38,392 --> 00:36:40,932 And he commands them to good. 380 00:36:41,832 --> 00:36:47,552 As a command of obligation or recommendation, as warranted. 381 00:36:49,752 --> 00:36:51,652 And he reproves their wrongdoing. 382 00:36:54,152 --> 00:36:58,688 He strives to help guide them. 383 00:36:58,772 --> 00:37:02,848 Perhaps we should stop here and pray Maghrib, Allah willing. 384 00:37:02,932 --> 00:37:08,168 Then return for the final session.
